Heels have earned a reputation as the shoes that mean business, especially at the office. But we’re convinced flats can send the same (powerful) message, without the foot aches. Which is exactly why we're on the quest to find the best flats for work. The wardrobe essential comes in a range of cool shapes and styles, all of which look polished but still feel unique.
Flats are also versatile that you can style them with a suit if you so desire, but they’ll pair just as well with jeans. So no matter what the dress code is at your office, you’ll be on sure footing. In our opinion, these 18 chic picks prove that a great pair of flats is the ultimate working-woman shoe choice.
